WHAT TO WEAR
So, you’re coming out to watch the race but you’re not very athletic? No problem! You can still be “on fleek” with the hippest fashions.

GIRLS
Take a look at the latest from Rihanna’s PUMA line. Sporty, flirty, comfort, all right there.

GUYS
If you haven’t checked out Good Boy Clothes yet, you’re missing one of Flint’s very own gems.

Why it’s Important:
• Everyone loves to get their beer and pizza after the race
• This position helps keep people in an orderly fashion
• People don’t want to wait in a huge line for their pizza and beer; efficiency is key

Why You’ll Love it:
• You are right in the center of the action in the festival lot
• You will get to work with your friends if you’d like, or make new friends
• You’ll get to see all of the different people who participate in the race

My only question is: do the “volunteers” get free pizza and beer or not? When we find out, we’ll put it on the front page…
